Bathrooms are crucial spaces in both homes and commercial facilities, demanding not just cleanliness but thorough disinfection. With a commercial steam cleaner or steam vacuum from US STEAM®, you can elevate the standard of cleaning in these essential areas. In this blog, we’ll guide you through using a steam cleaner to disinfect bathrooms, focusing on toilets, and other key areas, to maintain impeccable hygiene.
Why Choose a Steam Cleaner?
A commercial steam cleaner, like the EAGLE™ Commercial Steam Cleaner or the Seahawk™ Home Steam Vacuum, is more than just a cleaning tool; it’s an investment in hygiene and efficiency. These powerful machines produce high-temperature steam that not only cleans surfaces but also kills germs, bacteria, and viruses. This makes them ideal for bathroom cleaning where sanitation is paramount. Further, because steam is used for cleaning–instead of water–cleanup is much easier with shorter drying times.

Disinfecting the Entire Bathroom
A commercial steam cleaner or steam vacuum can disinfect various bathroom surfaces effectively. Further, there’s an attachment for every part of your bathroom. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
Sink, Counter, and Mirror: Start with the sink and counter area, using the steam to remove soap scum and toothpaste residue. Move on to the mirror for a streak-free clean.
Shower and Tub: Apply steam to the shower walls, tub, and shower door or curtain. The steam helps break down soap scum and mildew. If you’re using a commercial steam vacuum, you can also vacuum away the newly loosened grime.
Floors: Use the floor brush attachment to steam clean the bathroom floor, paying special attention to grout lines and corners. You’ll be amazed by how effective steam cleaning is on tile and grout!
Fixtures: Don’t forget fixtures like faucets and showerheads, where limescale can build up. Steam will loosen and blast away build-up.
Steam Cleaning Toilets: A Deep Clean Approach
Using a steam cleaner for toilet areas is an effective way to eliminate germs and grime. Here’s how to do it using the jet nozzle and brushes:
Prep the Area: Remove any loose dirt or debris from around the toilet by spraying steam with the jet nozzle.
Target the Bowl: Using a jet nozzle, direct the steam inside the toilet bowl, focusing on the rim and hard-to-reach areas under the seat.
Disinfect the Exterior: Apply steam to the toilet’s exterior, including the base and behind the toilet, where bacteria often accumulate.
Detailing: Use a small nylon or brash brush attachment to further loosen any grime.
Benefits of Using a Steam Cleaner in Bathrooms
Deep Cleaning: Steam penetrates surfaces, providing a deeper clean than traditional methods.
Eco-Friendly: Steam cleaning only uses water, reducing the need for harsh chemicals.
Time-Efficient: With steam, cleaning and disinfecting happen simultaneously, saving time. Further, unlike water-based cleaners, cleanup is much quicker and easier.
Allergen Reduction: Steam eliminates allergens, making it beneficial for those with allergies.
Using a steam cleaner to disinfect bathrooms offers an effective, eco-friendly, and efficient way to maintain cleanliness and hygiene. Whether it’s a steam cleaner for a toilet or for the entire bathroom, the results are a cleaner, healthier space.
